Known to the Byzantii (and the Romanii before them) as the Pictii and renowned for their fierce savagery, the Albainn resisted their invasions for hundreds of years and resist those of others still, for many yet covet the lands in the north, wild and bleak as they are. The brutal Norse raid the coasts of Alba with increasing ferocity, as they do most lands, but the Fomoraic and the Érainn and the Anglecynn pose a greater threat to the seven kingdoms of Alba, as their kings well know. It is the reason Fortriu and Cait and Circin and the other descendants of Cruthin call upon their ancient pacts with greater frequency now more than ever, pacts that ensure the Oghu stones they revere awaken with primeval might and the Oghur and the Oghurüc and the Oghurithne descend from the mountains to turn back the hordes of their enemies.
